Intoxicated
Not me
Everyone else
Yet I suffer
The hangover effect.
From the constant explosions
As 2012 began
Showering with exploding colour
Over my head.
The sound
Still pounds in my heart
As another cracker
Is about to explode.
Such an onslaught
Broke my fragile nerves
And the light show
Trigging me into semi consciousness.
As another seizure
Hijacks my body
And violently shook
Me into exhaustion.
So like so many
I started 2012 intoxicated
The hangover lingers
Without the seedy feeling.
